Seed its random number generator correctly. Here’s the description from the ssh-vulnkey man page:Ī substantial number of keys are known to have been generated usingĪ broken version of OpenSSL distributed by Debian which failed to Some technical background and documents the decisions leading up to The situation, Russ Cox wrote a very nice article which provides

The remainder of this article discusses how to check your key and However, if you have been used to using ssh-agent and key-basedĪuthentication, typing your password over and over will soon becomeīurdensome and you’ll want to generate a new key. That it won’t be compromised and update your key at your leisure.
Thus as long as your system is up to date, you can sleep well knowing
Into an updated system, you may see a message like the following: Public key 81:e6:75:64:17:5f:e2:ff:12:c3:ac:85:43:1e:6a:3c blacklisted (see ssh-vulnkey(1)) refusing to send it If you have an affected key and try to log That blacklisted the vulnerable keys, causing the system to fall back Once the bug was discovered, Debian security updates were released Unfortunately, as they say, badĬryptography looks the same as good cryptography. It to stable distributions, as someone would have noticed that all Would likely have been discovered much sooner, before the patch made If it were not for this ever so small bit of “randomness,” this bug So they are likely to have been generated by a processes with IDs, CertificateFile Specifies a file from which the users certificate is read. SSH host keys are usually generated immediately after installation and ssh(1) will not accept host certificates signed using algorithms other than those specified. One knows how soon after boot time a key was generated. Thus, generated keys can be predicted to the extent that In seeding the RNG leaving the process ID as the primary source of Introduced in September 2006, uninitialized memory was no longer used Predictable components like the current process ID (an integerīetween 1 and 32,768) were also used.
Originally uninitialized memory from the heap. Understand it, the primary source of entropy for seeding the RNG was Significantly reduced making a brute-force attack feasible. Introduced into the seeding of the RNG, the key space was Private key, but because there was significantly less entropy being This does not mean that an attacker could immediately guess your Official Debian security advisory for details. Any SSH keys generated by affected systems should beĬonsidered compromised. In May 2008, a bug was discovered in the Debian OpenSSL package whichĪffected the seeding of the random number generator ( RNG) used to
